We are residents of SWFL and visit Key West frequently on the Key West Express and stay a night or two in different hotels. After arriving this past Wednesday Feb 24, 2021 we were not greeted as we have been in the past. We were constantly harassed by the Police on bikes and foot patrol to wear a mask as we walked around OUTSIDE let alone inside by some establishments but not all. Small privately owned stores, trying to survive this FLU, didn't say anything to us walking in and around their stores cause they needed us to spend money so they could pay their rent and expenses. CVS in particular a large corporation store said as we walked in "put your mask on inside the store" I said "_ _ _ _ your masks and walked out. After being harrassed all day for a "mask mandated" "not a mask law" we decided to leave that night night on the Key West Express back to Fort Myers. We lost our $$ for the hotel stay, but I'd rather lose the money than stay than stay another day of being harassed in KW. I refuse to return to Key West and have told my friends to stay clear of Key West as it was a horrible experience and not worth the trip. We live in Charlotte County, FL and not the police nor store owners force anyone to wear a mask in their stores or on the street etc. I suggest the city of Key West back off with the Gestapo style tactics and ease up if you want your small...
Read moreThis month my family and I had visited Key West. When we travel, I like to stay a major chain hotel for the peace of mind and safety of my family.
Well not this Courtyard By Marriott located a 3031 N. Roosevelt Blvd.
Now I know why they do not charge resort fees, because it is far from a resort.
The headliner for this hotel should be BEAKFAST WITH THE ROAHES, or SWIM WITH THE REPTILES.
The staff was rude, and could care less. There was no phone, nor could they fix it. and the Hotel had no water, nor did they make any other plans or compensations for the guest.
When booking things to do at the hotel desk, they misquoted prices, then charged us extra.
One night when going to Duval Street, there were two police cars at the hotel. When I asked the hotel employee what had happened, he replied that there was an allegation that an hotel employee took a guest property.
On more then one occasion I asked to speak to a manager or supervisor, however there was always none available. Even after emailing the corporate office before I left the hotel, no one addressed my concerns.
When I checked out again the staff questioned if I received by itemized bill under the door, and I said no. When I received the bill there when erroneous charges on the bill. Maybe this is why I never received the bill under the door.
Thank...
Read moreThis was my forth trip to Key West Florida. The cost of everything is a joke nothing but pick your pockets clean. Cabs that charge .70 for a 1/5 of a mile which equates to 15.00 per mile, pay to park 30.00 - 40.00 per lot. Then insult pay to park on municipal spots what a joke. Taxes on top of taxes. This was just a few things to many to mention. No one will care, the commerce dept. and political parties must have some fat wallets. Be ready to give up your first born to travel on the toll roads as well. Shame on all of you. My last trip to Florida and will never say anything good about my time spent there. I'm going for a prostate exam to make sure my ass is still with me and they didn't want that to. I just hope I'm around to see the...
